I watch

As the pieces of my heart

Are shattered into oblivion.

Never to be brought back;

Never to be sewed together again.

And all I can do

Is watch

And cry.

They expect me to be strong,

But I need a helping hand.

When no one lends me one,

I struggle to get back up

On my own.

They don't realize

How badly they hurt me.

They don't realize

The pain their words cause me.

They don't realize

Forcing me to believe they don't care.

Forcing me to believe that nobody cares.

They can't tell that I'm broken,

Nor do they care that they are the reason

I am broken.

As far as I know,

I'll always be broken

Beyond repair.
